Hey, I like this movie. I dare you, nay I challenge you to find me a better nazi zombie movie. Yes this may not be the best zombie movie out there but you know what, its from Germany, ad Germany gave us 'Hostel' and Phelous hates 'Hostel'. Granted I hate 'Hostel' too but you have to admit, this is at least better that 'Hostel'.

this movie is Norwegian, which means that the film is made in norway

I watched the non dubbed version, and the dialog made a lot more sense ... coffie guy for example said "Who made this coffee ... It tasts like shit!"
Any way, I don't know why, but I liked this movie quite a bit, though it does drag in places.
Nice review, but it really doesn't touch on the right points of the movie.

Hostel is from the USA, not from Germany. What made you think, it was from Germany?
-
02.24.2011 - 20:47 | shrimppuff423
you honestly thought there would be a German film with Nazis in it?
-
02.28.2011 - 17:41 | Roler42
the zombies from world at war and black ops are better than this ones XD (kidding)

Much better than your last video imo, very funny.
Glad you covered the movie, it's shit. For the record I like it most when you cover zombie movies. I'll be waiting for the days when you cover "Zombies gone Wild" and "Zombie Strippers". :) If you never even heard of them, go see them. They're just wretched. Perfect Phel materials there.
I'd like to add that if you get the right kind of girl, she wouldn't mind some BDSM. :) He just needs to get a more exotic chick.

No no no no ! Not Zombie Strippers ! That freaking movie killed my libido for something like 2 weeks ! :|
Still, I though it was funny... but too disturbing...
-
Iceberg!!!!!!!!!! No wait, Icycles!!!!! No wait, Zombies in the snow? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU UUUUUUUUUUUUUUU (Gets snowball thrown in face)

the only good thing that came out of this turd was the concept of nazi zombies so the non labodomized people of Treyarch could put the Kick ass, funny as hell, awesome Nazi zombie survuval mode in WaW and Black ops. their version has characters who are smart and funny and are developed, nazi zombies that are threating and act act the way real zombies should act, and a conspirincy that gives an explaination of why there are nazi zombies
-
There's snow doubt, this was a great review.
Awesome, Phelous!
*Grab pillow and suffocate 'playfully'*
"Relax... relax..." Wow, I couldn't help but laugh at how stupid that part was.
-
02.23.2011 - 21:54 | FullmetalNinja25
Never thought I'd see the 10th Doctor's Regeneration music set to someone being dismembered. "I don't wanna go!" indeed. :P
Great video Phelous! :D
-
02.24.2011 - 00:56 | whatever42
I thought along similar lines. Honestly though, the line fit astonishingly well in a very twisted way. :)
Another great review from you Phelous. This seemed like a very stupid and silly movie in almost every aspect. I could imagine watching it with friends and laughing at it the whole way. Seriously though, there were some really off things here. What was with that pillow thing and the exposition guy? That was possibly the worst instance of a reason for an exposition character that I've seen.
I loved your usage of the shotgun, Troll 2 music, and classical music violence jokes in this review. Keep up the good work. Also, I'm going to be surprised if that pillow thing doesn't turn out to be a running joke. ;)
-
02.24.2011 - 14:01 | Threeshades
Neither did I. Then again if I ever did, I would have continued thinking "Wow, that was an awfully specific thought to have."
-
02.23.2011 - 22:07 | Penguin4
This movie was completely terrible. One of your best reviews in a while. Also since when was your name ThatGuyWithTheFridge? I've never seen a fridge in your videos. How intriguing.
-
02.23.2011 - 22:20 | WarxePB
A movie about nazi zombies and not a single reference to Call of Duty? I am disappoint, Phelous.
Otherwise, the review was good.
-
The Doctor vs Zombies would be pretty cool.
At least we're getting Nazis.
Also, do you think they should do something? I think they should do something. Maybe a something kind of something. The something something where they do something...something- ly....don't you think so too?
-
02.23.2011 - 23:18 | montanker
That Molotov cocktail part made me laugh because before watching this I was playing Left 4 Dead and I tried to Molly a tank but I hit the window frame and I burned myself to death :D
Also, I loved the random exposition guy!
"Can I get some coffee, by the way the Nazis were bad ,kthxbai!"
-
How about doing an Outpost review? Its another nazi-zombie movie with plot holes you could fire a nuke into. Starring the perv from Doom, the last guy to play the Punisher(why is it that nobody on the site has riped the Punisher movies a new one?) and that raver guy from Spaced.
I'm surprised you didn't show the «I won't turn nazi zombie because my grampa is jewish» joke.
-
Compared to most of the other movies you reviewed lately Dead Snow actually does provide entertainment - silly characters, awesome zombies and shit. I mean, I know it's not a perfect movie, but if you tear down everything the same, how are we know we can trust your reviews? ;)
-
I remember watching this movie with my Dad once, but we watched it subbed. We both enjoyed it, not because it was good, but because of how stupid and awkward it got at times. It's kinda fun to watch (the last half at least) if you don't really take it seriously, but honestly how could you?
Thanks for the great video!

Hey, i like Dead Snow. It could have used a lil more shit sex though.
Anyways, i think this movie is more meant to be watched with its original Norwegian dub. The English dub leaves out alot of stuff that made the film interesting.
Phelous, If you watch it with its original Norwegian Dub, it would make a way better experience than what you saw.
-
I agree with you, Im from Norway in i LOVE dead snow (the norwegian version) its so great and funny LOL
-
02.24.2011 - 00:17 | punksweets
weird because it just snowed where i live. I thought that nazis zombies is something so ridiculous it would have to be entraining some how but i was wrong.
-
02.24.2011 - 00:25 | OniQ
"Don't Forget your Booties Cause it COLD OUTSIDE!"
"Its cold out there everyday! What is this MIAMI BEACH" (my instinct is to say this line to when ever Groundhog day is mentioned)
The subtitled version of the movie is better.

You'd be surprised how often you run into Nazi Zombies in the B-Movie world. All those rumors about secret weapon projects and Hitler's fascination with the occult has made for a few colorful story ideas. Of course, "colorful" doesn't equal "good."
Thoughts:
- You look cold, Phelous.
- "I think this will just take care of itself." In the entire history of zombie films, has that ever happened?
- You know, for being over six decades old, those were some good looking Nazi zombies. Even their clothes were pristine. Cold does a zombie good.
- That guy looked really angry at being stabbed over and over and then torn apart. What a blow for him.
- Never mock the snow.
Good review.
-
02.24.2011 - 14:15 | ThreeshadesOf course their clothes were still in mint condition, those are German military grade clothes.
-
02.24.2011 - 23:39 | Mr.EvilGerman engineering in da house! (If anyone gets that reference, I'll be really impressed and/or frightened.)

02.24.2011 - 00:40 | rockybalboa211
I like watching Phelous getting hit in the crotch! That's artistic gold right there!! :D
Now if it were a football, that would be oscar gold!
Also Phelous how can you stay out in the cold so long? Well I guess canadians have an affinity for the cold.. I being a Texan who has never actually seen snow for reals.. would probably die :(
NAZI ZOMBIES!!
Also Phelous you laugh a lot at suprised people/orcs/zombies lol! :D
-
WTF ? This movie is absolutley awsome. It´s incredibly fun to watch and i love it. I hate how people always post comments about how stupid or a bad a movie is without actually seeing it. Sorry man, i love your reviews but this is just unfair. Dead Snow is great.
-
02.24.2011 - 00:38 | Solust
This movie is fantastic. If you watch it like it's a horror movie you'll be disappointed, just as you would be if you did the same with Leprechaun, or Scary Movie, or Snakes on a Plane.
This is a fucking comedy. It's meant to be silly and hilarious, and it succeeds in both of those aspects superbly.
-
02.24.2011 - 00:41 | azisnomarsa
I actually loved this movie.
It reminded me of Zombieland so much. I laughed my ass off, because I knew going in this that it's gonna be a comedy, and it did not disappoint me.
-
02.24.2011 - 00:53 | WeAllLoveToastHey! I liked this one!
-
02.24.2011 - 01:09 | Cannibal
I don't see how Phelous was "unfair" to this movie. He said for a horror-comedy, he was expecting a lot more and that it was too slow moving. He even admitted the fights were cool, but that there wasn't enough of them.
Just because a movie is a "comedy," doesn't you can litter it with pointless, awkward scenes. The suffocation play, the shit sex, the old man just staring... Where is the funny in these scenes? If you thought they were funny, great, but don't say he judged it unfairly just because you thought it was funny.
-
02.24.2011 - 01:18 | LimeGreenSquid
Haha, we watched this one! I couldn't stop laughing at the zombie in the Has-mat zuit!
-
:| Really how could you not like this movie? Its got the set up of a B-movie and it knows it. Fuck they even start arguing about Evil Dead in the movie. To each his own I guess.
-
02.24.2011 - 06:11 | dennett316
How does arguing about Evil Dead make it good? How does it being a B movie excuse the slow pacing? For the record I've seen it and it was OK, but there's plenty to riff on.
Being a B movie isn't an excuse, copying crappy characters then winking at the camera about it still makes your characters crappy.
-
02.24.2011 - 20:28 | The Man in the TophatMaybe that whats I was looking for hence the "to each his own." Im not here to be the critic thats Phelous' job.
-
02.24.2011 - 02:08 | Fredrikslicerto be fair a bit of the movie was ruined by the dub
-
02.24.2011 - 02:09 | Daemon25
I was tempted to buy this recently (in my defence, it was reletively cheap), but after watching your review... I'm honestly not so sure now - If the original language version is good, then maybe. But otherwise, it looks like a barely competant comedy.
-
02.24.2011 - 02:21 | honestiago
I saw it in the original language, and trust me, it's just as painfully boring as the dubbed version.
-
02.24.2011 - 02:09 | Perzyn
How do you screw Nazi Zombies? It's one of this things, that are awesome enough on their own, it should be impossible to make a bad movie about them. Sort of like a Civil War Confederate Zombie Cannibals!
Oh, and the chainsaw-amputee-guy, I think he tried to pull a Bruce Campbell on this one but failed. Miserably. And utterly.
-
02.24.2011 - 02:13 | The_Awesometeer
I love the Banjo Koozie music
-
02.24.2011 - 02:23 | honestiagoMy friends and I had a zombie party recently, and we watched this movie, along with Zombieland and [REC]. This movie almost killed us. You're right, Phelous; this movie is hellishly boring. The funny moments are so sparse that when they do arrive, you're almost more irritated than entertained. Something mildly amusing would happen, and then I'd think: "Oh. That's funny. When are we going to see them fight the zombies?" That was the other thing that irked me; for a zombie movie, it had almost no zombie scenes. And I was one of the ones who suggested that we watch the movie too... most unfortunate. You have no idea how many brain-shaped cupcakes I had to eat to make myself feel alive again.

Return of the "stupid surprised" joke. I was wondering when the next stupi surprised person or animal was going to show itself. ^^
As for the m ovie in general; I guess no-one nowadays can make a decent zombie flick. Hell, evne George Romero finally fell prey to the idiocy of what modern horror movies turn out like.
-
02.24.2011 - 02:26 | DoomedTick
Hey, to each their own. Phelous doesn't lose any respect or brownie points for disliking or finding fault with a movie.
Personally, I enjoyed it, but I'm a generally accepting guy. Of course, I watched the subtitled version, so the dialogue was more acceptable all around.
Fun fact, Dead Snø(go Norwegian spelling!) was actually a college project. At least, that's what I found when I researched it.
-
02.24.2011 - 12:08 | peloquinYou mean Doed Snoe. And no it want a college project.
